I agree w those that say hopefully you got the call for what “you do”. I’d have a Stomp as both a Swiss Army knife” of tones and as a way to easily send two different guitar signals to the board.

I'm an engineer, pro studios all my life. I'd say you're well set. have spare strings and cables. I wouldn't track the delays/reverbs myself unless they were an essential part of the sound. One thing, don't be bullied. The studio exists for musicians, not the other way round, get things so that you're comfortable, so you can perform, that's monitoring, lighting, communication and overall vibe. Ask the engineer to record whenever the track is playing, those little noodles and non takes often have gems in them.

Sounds great! Excited to hear those amps and pedals mic'd up in the studio!

[timelmore]

Just a pause for thought on the Stomp. Yes, in asking you to bring some nice amps they are probably looking for something along the lines of what you're bringing. However, they asked you to come and play. If they know you at all, they know that you are more than proficient with modelers. Don't feel any shame pulling that stuff out if it fits the bill. Do what you feel and not what you think they might want you to feel.

Good luck, John, I’m sure you’re going to crush it!

[jimmcdougall]

Good luck John. Break a leg! Setup sounds great. Will be interesting to know what you’re busy with. We’ll probably only find out once the finished product is available. Your space echo is nicely set up for Brian May tones. Add a treble booster 😉

[gravyblue]

I'd add a volume pedal so you can keep the noise in check, And a decent tuner.

Good luck! People are all winning so many prizes! 🤪 Silly bots. sheesh

Great sounds John. That Boss Re202 is delicious, I’ve been shopping delay pedals 30 minutes since noticing it in your mix. I’m also curious about your reverb. I didn’t catch what you use. But there was definitely something on your “clean” sound right?

[BrazenNL]

Funny, I love the Royal Overdrive on a guitar with HBs or a Tele. Now I'm not a Strat fan, but I'm not a fan of it on a Strat. The the Dude works for me on everything.

[Johnherold]

Those sound like new set of strings on that K-line. Am I off?

[lp]

That Royal Overdrive sounds great…..very hard to get and $1K. They need a cheaper one in a smaller pedal. Sounds like my Carol Ann OD2 overdrive channel.

[Nako]

really making me want to get the re 202 👀

[picksalot]

Maybe bring the Nobels ODR-1. Have fun recording! 😎

[JackroyLi]

Hey John, plz check your Patron inbox, thanks!

[TCMx]

Feels like you should take two strats but I wouldn't know. I just know with computers if you have two you have one and if you have one you have zero

Worth confirming, the comment spam on these YouTube comments here asking people to text you on telegram are scammers, right? Hope so, since I've "reported" them

[nekkon]

I know you wouldn't use plugins in the studio.
Tube amps all the way!
